Coming Home Late

 

Adventure Location: Falcon Lake State Park Texas

Adventure Date: 2-12-2023

The morning started a bit chilly and over cast so the OFM hit the trails for some walking. We chose the more uneven and up and down trails this morning to test the OFM legs. The legs did fairly well. However we know tonight that a bit less than 2.5 miles of it would have been better. The soreness will go away eventually and the fun will be long remembered.

It was another busy morning but the OFM had to lay down and nap a bit in the mid afternoon. Those short 30 minute afternoon naps seem to be very important to the OFM body being able to preform well through out the whole day.

While at the computer this afternoon a cute cottontail bunny came hopping out of the brush and checked out the camp site for goodies. It is nice to finally getting to see some of the wildlife that usually is in the area.

Tonight's effort at a great sunset picture was a failure but we have four nice pictures from the evening effort. We parked Sierra at the large picnic area where we had chosen to try for good pictures and soon had to pleasant visitors from the brush stop by for supper.

It is nice to see wild critters roaming around again.

This next picture is the very early starting of sunset and the OFM thought it was just a nice scene and captured it.

Then we piddled around for a bit looking for other things to photograph but having no luck tonight. Finally the OFM liked this composition we called Hole in the Sky.

We waited a good while and shot a few more pictures in hopes the scene would get better while incubating in the camera. They didn't.

More waiting and we got lucky to have a fisherman heading to make a nice late evening lake picture.

COMING HOME LATE

A question was asked when we will move north next. We checked the weather this evening about a long days drive north and it is still winter up there just a little past Del Rio and will be for a week or two. Del Rio is the next decent camping north of here and is about 300 miles of towing away. We do plan on Wednesday to move to the county park next door for the rest of our time here in the Falcon Heights area. So for a few more days we will be here in this area trying to have tooooo much fun.
